Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Texas Mathematics Teachers' Bulletin, Vol. 12: February 8, 1928 The increasing demand in our high schools for subjects that have little value as a preparation for the first year Of college is bringing us nearer to the time when each high school must determine as early as possible those Of its students who expect to enter college and those who will leave at the end of the course for some career outside the university. Definite classes should be formed in the last two years for prospective college students who will be given instruction necessary as a foundation for the freshman year. Frequent conferences between teachers and students would be Of great value in helping to acquaint the student with the problems and difficulties Of the first year Of college. With so many electives in our best high schools it is hardly possible that immature students are capable Of making, without advice, a wise and proper selection Of courses for a foundation for college. Going to college should be a more serious matter with many Of our young people. All ground work for the first year in college should be thoroughly mastered and reviewed the last year in high school. It is absolutely wrong to classify during the last two years of high school the future college man with the one who is going out into life at once. They have different aims and purposes and cannot be formed and fashioned in the same mould. In many Of the larger high schools the formation Of separate classes for pro spective college students could be easily made. The teaching force in the smaller ones would have more diffi culty in meeting the issue - but even there a way should be found to save from failure a large number Of. Those going to college.
